Brighton electorate pedestrian crossings

James NEWBURY (Brighton) (16:28): After years of community advocacy the state and federal governments have agreed to jointly fund pedestrian safety infrastructure in Dendy Village and Hampton Street. The village is a busy thoroughfare. Currently there is no pedestrian crossing and the site is unsafe. After almost a decade of calling for action, a proper pedestrian crossing will be installed. This is a win for our community. I must say a huge thankyou to Debbie and Theo from Fresh Connection for their incredible work on making this happen. Community wins like this only happen because of wonderful community-minded people like Debbie, Theo and the many thousands of people who signed our petition and called for the crossing. Thank you again to everyone who helped make this happen.
